New Mimaki helps Lustalux meet surge in demand for graphics.

Lustalux's Sign & Graphics Assistant, Jonny Borg with the company's new Mimaki CJV300 printer/cutterLustalux's Sign & Graphics Assistant, Jonny Borg with the company's new Mimaki CJV300 printer/cutterUK based Lustalux, located in Preston has recently added a Mimaki CJV300-160 printer/cutter to its machine line-up as part of its ongoing expansion plans and in response to increased demand for wide format print. The window film and commercial graphics company has recently also enlarged its business premises, taken on new staff to ensure its service offering remains high for clients new and old.

"The business has gone from strength to strength throughout 2015,” said Richard Lancaster, Director of Lustalux. “Due to an increase in client wins, we were struggling to keep up with the surge in demand for printed graphics, murals and wallpaper. By investing in the new Mimaki CJV300 wide format printer, we've excelled our service offering which means we can continue developing towards becoming a leading UK provider of graphics and signage."

Purchased through authorised Mimaki reseller, Granthams; the CJV300 sits at the head of Mimaki’s integrated printer/cutter range and is capable of delivering high quality outdoor durable print at speeds of over 100 m2/h onto vinyl, banner, canvas, paper and other substrates. With a print width of 1.6m and running Mimaki’s SS21 low solvent inks, Lustalux is now utilising the CJV300’s high quality of output to expand its portfolio.

“The new Mimaki has replaced our previous eco-solvent printer/cutter and was chosen because it offered us a higher standard of quality and detail,” cites Lancaster. “It came highly recommended to us, although we already recognised Mimaki as the market leader.”
